SAP Program RJIDMV20 - Period Comparison of Audit Report Quantities

Description
This report compares average circulation quantities for editions andaudit report IDs (e.g. ABC numbers) for two selected periods. You canuse this evaluation internally.
Selection can be restricted according to the following criteria:

  • 2 publication periods or shipping/return periods

  • If you specify a shipping/return period, you can exclude issuespublished before the date specified here and delivered subsequently inthe shipping period, in the field 'Backdated deliveries only frompublication date'.
    Examples:
    You do not make an entry in this field. In this case, the reportincludes all issues delivered subsequently during the shipping periodin the figures.
    You specify 1.4.1998 as the date. Here, the report includes all issuesdelivered subsequently in the shipping period and which were publishedon 1.4.1998 or after.
    You specify 31.12.9999 as the date. In this case, no issues deliveredsubsequently are included.
    • Publication

    • Edition

    • Audit report ID (edition)

    • Normal delivery country

    • Country to which the items purchased are delivered, provided noredirection or the like applies.
      • Issue variant type

      • The issue variant type enables you to select for example only Saturdayeditions or all editions except Saturday.
        • Incl.issues w/auditing exclusion (include issues with circulation audit
        • exclusion)
          This indicator controls whether or not circulation audit data is to beincluded for issues in which the circulation audit exclusion indicatoris selected. If you select this indicator, the report includes issueswhere the exclusion indicator is selected.
          • Sales organization

          • Distribution channel

          • Product division

          • Output can be defined by means of the following criteria:
            • CAR hierarchy type and CAR hierarchy version

            • Basic categories only

            • CAR category

            • If you only want to list certain CAR categories, you must specify themin this field. If display is to be restricted to basic categories,select the indicator 'Basic categories only'.
              • Expand delivery types

              • If you select this indicator, the report expands the totals for acirculation audit category by delivery types. You can specify whichorder-related delivery types are to be included under a CAR hierarchyin the expanded sublist in the next parameter.
                • Del.type(s) to be expanded

                • Here you can specify the delivery types to be included when expandingthe list by delivery types.
                  • Ignore inserts

                  • If you select this indicator, figures arising from insertion of issuesare not included in the evaluation.
                    • Ignore combinations

                    • If you select this indicator, figures arising from combination ofissues are not included in the evaluation.
                      • Sort by edition

                      • This indicator determines whether or not a new form page is taken foreach edition.
                        • Print audit report ID for edition

                        • Select this indicator to print the audit report ID of the edition inthe page header in a list sorted by edition.
                          • Sort by audit report ID

                          • This indicator controls whether or not a new form page (containing thedata on all the issues that belong to the audit report ID) is printedfor each audit report ID.
                            • Print editions for audit report ID

                            • If you select this parameter, the page header in the list sorted byaudit report ID lists the editions that belong to that ID. This can bemore than one edition.

                              Precondition
                              You must specify two publication or delivery/return periods on theselection screen. You can also specify a publication and edition or acirculation audit number. The hierarchy type and version are requiredfields, as they are needed in order to output the data according to acirculation audit hierarchy. The corresponding hierarchy must bedefined in Customizing.
                              The draw can only be determined correctly if the 'circulation produced'is maintained fully in the issues on which the evaluation is based.

                              Output
                              The report creates a list summarized according to the input parametersand with the quantities cumulated by circulation audit categories. Thedifferences are also displayed as absolute figures and percentages. Ifit is not possible to specify the percentage difference because thequantity is 0 in the 'basic period' 1 (division by 0), the listdisplays a '*'.
                              First, the report creates a list taking a new page for each edition,followed by a list divided by circulation audit numbers. The number ofissues used to calculate averages is displayed in each page header.
                              If the list is to be expanded by delivery types, the averages arerounded at delivery type level and otherwise, at circulation auditlevel. Totals are calculated based on these rounded values.
                              The certificated gross print run is calculated based on the'circulation produced', which is maintained in the issues included inthe evaluation. The system does not check whether this data ismaintained correctly in the issues - i.e. whether the value is greaterthan the delivery quantity for that date. The difference between thedraw and the quantities delivered (excluding returned copies) is listedas a calculated remainder in a category defined for this purpose.
                              The following guideline applies according to the circulation audithierarchy set up:
                              'circulation distributed' + 'circulation not distributed' + 'returns' ='draw'
